Ever since the beginning of time, people felt compelled to believe there is a God. They worshiped anything, from cows to fat women (OK maybe that didn't change a lot LOL)...point is, people felt like their life is not safe. They needed to believe that after they die, there's a special place for them to go and have an eternal life with their beloved. They believe that this God knows everything, is everywhere and created everything perfectly...Then someday, reality hits them smack in the forehead and says "hey shithead, guess what, you're on your own!".
The sad reality is that you can pray how much you want, if it has to happen, it's gonna happen!
The path of logic doesn't lead to religion. If you really think about it, religion is probably the most illogical thing you can come up with. You're believing in something that doesn't exist and can never be proven otherwise. The worst part? Religion keeps finding sheep that follow the herd to the righteous path towards salvation (Which by the way also costs you money when you go to praise this so called god, that secretly goes towards the funding of the local priest's new comfy bedroom where he can play monopoly with his young altar boys.)
I strongly believe that in 2009, people should get a clue and start believing in what is right in front of their face and not some spooky invisible man that is praised when something good happens, and excused when bad shit happens.
In the great George Carlin's own words "These kind of actions do not belong in the resume' of a supreme being."
I'll conclude this article with one of my most favorite quotes :
"Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then why does evil exist ?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?"
